Am I trying to make my own MMO? Not by a long shot, but if I ever did hope to, I'd want nothing less than to model it after the best one out there.

The idea has merit Sigium, but if you didn't mean for it to apply to CoH than it probably shouldn't have gone into Suggestions and Ideas.

In hindsight? Yeah, probably a good idea. However, there's no real place I can think of where this WOULD go.

You could put it in General Discussions. It's still CoH-related, because it can draw inspiration and it's rooted in game design, but it's not so much a suggestion as a topic for discussion. I've posted a few of those there, and I usually get good response, even if not always very populous. Just preface it with an explanation that this is not a suggestion and not a change to city of heroes, but a hypothetical design for a theoretical MMO.

Thanks, Sam. I didn't really see this fitting in.
"Discuss all things CoH...? Well, that's not gonna fit in there..."

I'll put a bit more work into it before I post a better draft. Until then, I'll see about getting this thread wiped.
